Last year if I remember right, they did this just before Server hop. So....

ORLY?

I wonder exactly what kind of rings and transportation they have in store for ToAU...

So "permanantly" deleted characters are actually stored somewhere and deactivated? Either way I thought the limit was 3 (or 6?) months of inactivity and its deleted as well.

I'd assume you have a 3 month file archive on-site, then you archive all files to storage at another site, harder to get back to them and such. But they can dig through it if necessary. No idea if this is how SE works, just a guess.

I think what they mean by "more accessible and convenient" is that FFXI will be on Xbox 360.

I always assumed they never fully deleted anything ever, always had it readily available, and just lied about it to fool players into thinking their character was fully deleted post the 3-month date.

I'm glad they're doing this again... my friend's account got deleted by his girlfriend several months ago and hopefully he'll be able to get it restored. :O

btw, is it true that some of the people who were banned will be able to come back with Return to Vana'diel, or is that just a rumor?

On the site itself:

- The applicant is eligible to have his/her character reactivated through the Information Center.

Fucking bud just tried this, he deleted his char once, then deleted it again and they wouldn't allow restore, and they still won't even with this program...

Why'd he delete it so many times?

He deleted once becuase he took a break from the game, and a second time becuase you can change your chars name by delete > make char name on new ID > restore, but they said no to him becuase of a double delete.
